طفق

1 طَفِقَ يَفْعَلُ كَذَا, (S, Mgh, O, K,) aor. ـَ (S, K;) and طَفَقَ, aor. ـِ (S, O, K,) mentioned by Akh, (S, ISd, O,) and by Zj, (ISd, TA,) as said by some, (S, O,) but pronounced by Lth to be bad; (TA;) inf. n. طَقَقٌ, (S, K, TA, [in some copies of the K, erroneously, طَفْقٌ,]) of the former verb; (S, TA;) and طُــفُوقٌ, (S, O, K,) of the latter verb; (S, O;) He set about, began, commenced, took to, or betook himself to, doing such a thing: (S, Mgh, O, TA:) expl. in the K as meaning he continued uninterruptedly the doing of such a thing (وَاصَلَ الفِعْلَ [or in some copies وَصَلَ الفِعْلَ]), and by El-Háfidh Ibn-Hajar, in the “ Fet-h el-Bári,” as meaning he entered upon, began, or commenced, and went on continually, doing such a thing; but it denotes the entering upon the doing of a thing irrespectively of the going on continually or not, and therefore it is not allowable to prefix أَنْ to its predicate: (MF, TA:) it is followed by a future [or an aor. , as in the ex. above]: the saying فَطَفِقَ مَسْحًا بِالسُّوقِ وَالْأَعْنَاقِ, in the Kur [xxxviii. 32], (TA,) i. e. He took to severing with the sword [the thighs and the necks], or, as some say, to wiping [or stroking] with his hand [the thighs and the necks], (Bd,) is for طَفِقَ يَمْسَحُ مَسْحًا: (Bd, * TA:) the verb is used only in an affirmative phrase: they do not say مَا طَفِقَ. (IDrd, O, K.) b2: طَفِقَ فُلَانٌ بِمَا أَرَادَ, (Aboo-Sa'eed, O, K, *) a phrase of the Arabs of the desert, (Aboo-Sa'eed, O,) meansSuch a one attained that which he desired. (Aboo-Sa'eed, O, K. *) b3: And one says طَفِقَ المَوْضِعَ, aor. ـَ He kept, or clave, to the place. (ISd, K.) 4 اطفقهُ اللّٰهُ بِهِ God caused him to attain him, or it. (Aboo-Sa'eed, O, K.) One says, لَئِنْ

أَطْفَقَنِى اللّٰهُ بِهِ لَأَفْعَلَنَّ بِهِ [Verily if God cause me to attain him, or it, I will assuredly do something with him, or it]. (TA.)

طعم

(L.) Hence, in the Kur [xxxiii. 53], فَإِذَا طَعِمْتُمْ فَانْتَشِرُوا And when ye shall have eaten [disperse yourselves]. (S, * TA.) And you say, فُلَانٌ قَلَّ طُعْمُهُ, meaning [Such a one,] his eating [was, or became, little]. (S.) The saying in the Kur [ii. 250], وَمَنْ لَمْ يَطْعَمْهُ فَإِنَّهُ مِنِّى means But whoso does not taste it, (S, Msb, * TA,) he is of my followers, (Bd, Jel,) or is at one, or in union, with me: (Bd:) or, accord. to Zj, the meaning is, بِهِ ↓ لَمْ يَتَطَعَّمْ [app. meaning does not refresh himself with it as though with food]: (TA:) or, as some say, the passage in which it occurs denotes a prohibition to take aught save as much as is laded out with the hand; and when water has with it something that is chewed, one says of it يُطْعَمُ. (Er-Rághib, TA.) تَطْعَمْ ↓ تَطَعَّمْ i. e. Taste thou, (S, Mgh, K,) then thou wilt have desire, or appetence, (Mgh,) or so that thou mayest have desire, or appetence, and mayest eat; (S, K;) or taste thou the food, for it will induce thee to eat it; (IB, TA;) is a prov., (IB, Mgh, TA,) said to him who refrains from an affair; meaning, commence it, for thy doing so will invite thee to finish it. (IB, TA.) b2: الطَّعْمُ signifies also The eating with the central incisors: one says, إِنَّهُ لَيَطْعَمُ طَعْمًا حَسَنًا [Verily he eats well with the central incisors].

(K, * TA.) b4: طَعِمَ said of a branch, or shoot, (tropical:) It received ingraftment. (ISh, K, TA.) b5: and [hence, perhaps,] طَعِمَتْ عَيْنُهُ (assumed tropical:) [His eye had a mote cast into it: see 4]. (TA.) b6: طَعِمَ عَلَيْهِ, (K, TA,) inf. n. طُعْمٌ, (K, * TA,) which, in the K, is improperly disjoined from its verb, [as though it were a simple subst.,] (TA,) i. q. قَدَرَ [i. e. He had power over him, or it; or he had power, or ability, to do it, &c.]. (K, TA.) 2 طَعَّمَ see 4, in three places. b2: طعّم, (K, TA,) inf. n. تَطْعِيمٌ, (TA,) said of a bone, means (assumed tropical:) It had, or contained, marrow. (K, TA.) [Used in this sense, it may be regarded as a trans. v. of which the objective complement is understood; as though signifying It fed.]3 طَاعَمْتُهُ I ate with him. (TA.) b2: and [hence] طَاعَمَا, said of two pigeons, (tropical:) They billed; the male bird inserting his mouth [or bill] into that of his female; as also ↓ تَطَاعَمَا. (K, TA.) 4 اطعمهُ, (Msb, K,) or اطعمهُ الطَّعَامَ, (S,) [inf. n. إِطْعَامٌ,] He fed him; or gave him to eat, or gave him food; (Msb, K;) [and so, accord. to modern usage, ↓ طعّمهُ.] b2: And [hence] اطعمهُ signifies also (tropical:) He supplied him with the means of subsistence: whence, in the Kur [li. 57], وَمَا أُرِيدُ

It is said of the Prophet, أَطْعَمَهُمْ طُعْمَةً (assumed tropical:) [He assigned to them, or gave them, a طعمة]: accord. to Aboo-Haneefeh, الإِطْعَامُ signifies peculiarly (assumed tropical:) the lending of land for cultivation: but it is said on the authority of Mo'áwiyeh, إِنَّهُ أَطْعَمَ عَمْرًا خَرَاجَ مِصْرَ, meaning (assumed tropical:) that he gave 'Amr as a طُعْمَة the خراج [or land-tax] of Egypt.

(TA.) طَحَّانٌ [meaning A miller, or grinder of wheat and the like,] is thus, perfectly decl., if you do not derive it from الطَّحُّ: (K, TA:) i. e. طَحَّان, if you derive it from الطَّحْنُ, is perfectly decl.; but if you derive it from الطَّحُّ, or from الطَّحَا which signifies “ the expanded tract of land,” it is imperfectly decl.: (S, TA:) if from الطَّحُّ, it is of the measure فَعْلَانُ, not فَعَّالٌ; and if from الطَّحَا, it would be by rule طَحْوَانُ.

طَاحِنٌ The bull, of those that tread the wheat, that stands [الَّذِى يَقُومُ, for which الَّّتِى تَقُومُ is erroneously put in the K and TA,] in the middle of the heap thereof and around which the other bulls turn: (K, TA:) mentioned by En-Nadr, on the authority of El-Jaadee. (TA.) طَيْحَنٌ, mentioned by Freytag as meaning A frying-pan (“ sartago ”), is evidently a mistranscription, for طَيْجَنٌ.]

طَاحِنَةٌ, (Msb, TA,) in which the ة is added to give intensiveness to the signification, (Msb,) [or to convert the epithet طَاحِنٌ into a subst.,] sing. of طَوَاحِنُ, (Msb, TA,) which signifies (assumed tropical:) The أَضْرَاس [as meaning the molar teeth, or grinders,] (S, Msb, K, TA) of a man and of others; as being likened to a mill.

[He drank until] he stretched out his legs: and البَعِيرُ ↓ طحّى

إِلَى الأَرْضِ i. e. The camel stuck to the ground, either from emptiness or from emaciation: and in like manner one says of a man when people call him to aid or to do an act of kindness: the verb being in all these instances with teshdeed: as though, by saying this, he contradicted As as to its being without teshdeed. (TA.) Accord. to AA, (S,) طَحَيْتُ means I lay, or lay upon my side, or laid my side upon the ground. (S, K. *) And you say, ↓ نَامَ فُلَانٌ فَتَطَحَّى i. e.

[But probably the right expression is فى طَخْيَائِهِ: see طَخْيَآءُ.]) طَحَّانُ as derived from الطَّحَا: see طَحَّانٌ, in art. طحن.

طَاحٍ Spread; spread out, or forth; expanded; or extended. (S, * K. [See also مُطَحٍّ.]) And That has filled everything by its multitude: (K, TA:) in this sense [or in the former sense as is implied in the S] applied to an army. (TA.) And one says مِظَلَّةٌ طَاحِيَةٌ and ↓ مَطْحُوَّةٌ and ↓ مَطْحِيَّةٌ, meaning A great (T, K, TA) spreading (TA) tent. (T, K, * TA.) And المُدَوِّمَةُ الطَّوَاحِى
